A Short Post About The Proclaimers


Is it actually possible to sing along to The Proclaimers without doing the voices?

My thought is: no.

You're right, it's absolutely impossible. In fact I'm doing it now just from reading about it ;-)

No, it really isn't. We saw them at the Big Chill last year — huge crowd of people, all doing terrible Scots accents. When ya goooo, wull ye sind baaaack...

No, you have to do the accent and as someone who lives in Edinburgh, it's quite entertaining to see the pished rugby fans trying to sing along.

Claim to fame - my brother in law lived opposite one of the Proclaimers for a while. See, friend to the stars that's me!

Most definitely: No.

I also seemed to turn swedish when I sing along to Abba!!

Listening to the Proclaimers: remind me again, who is one of their biggest fans?...

It's particularly embarrassing if you start singing to yourself while walking up the street: ". . . what I want from this WUHRRRRld, and yees fra' nuhoo, we'll make it to thuh next WUHRRRRRld..." I don't know what would happen if I were in Scotland and accidently did this; I'd probably get beaten to a pulp...

I agree. I have to do the accent. It's the same when I sing along to Billy Bragg...
